Strapi Support Policy
Last updated: May 13, 2026
Strapi offers multiple support levels based on your subscription plan. This guide explains what's included with each level of support.
Important: Strapi Cloud subscriptions cover hosting services only. CMS features (like Content History, Audit Logs, etc.) require separate CMS Growth or Enterprise licenses. Your support coverage level depends on both your Cloud plan and any additional CMS licenses you have purchased.
Support coverage levels
Strapi provides four levels of support:
Community Support
Basic Support
Standard Support
Premium Support
All projects created using Strapi commands, starters, or templates are covered by Community Support by default.
Here is a breakdown of possible coverage levels, these are defaults and depending on your plan or contract this may be subject to differences, if you would like confirmation please open a ticket via the Customer Portal.
Plan Type | Plan Name | Default Coverage Level |
CMS Self-Hosted | Community | Community (No Official Support) |
CMS Self-Hosted | Growth | Basic Support |
CMS Self-Hosted | Enterprise | Standard Support |
Cloud | Free, Trial | Community (No Official Support) |
Cloud | Essential, Dev | Basic Support |
Cloud | Pro | Basic Support |
Cloud | Scale, Team | Standard Support |
Cloud | Scale+, Custom | Standard Support (Optional Premium Support Add-on) |
Note: If you have both a Strapi Cloud subscription and a separate CMS license, your support level is determined by the higher of the two. For example, a Cloud Essential plan with an Enterprise CMS license would have Standard Support coverage.
